To Pulau
Talang
 A little more tidying and Bear
suggested lunch out before we move just fourteen miles. Settled with a pint he chose wings and wedges, I had
nuggets and chips – how very Malaysian indeed. Ruminating, we both decided we
were pleased to have travelled through Indonesia but are so very pleased to be
in a country where anything is possible with so much more ease, parcels, bits,
language, friendly and gentle people who bend over backward to help. We like it
here very much and look forward to bring Beez back for her long and well
deserved rest.
 Pangkor
Marina, very empty now the rally boats have moved on. (Beez in
the middle).
 At three o’clock we left after the
ferry, looking back toward Marina
Island.
 Out of the marina and straight across to the channel.
 Then we turned right and headed toward the promontory on the right.
 .On our return we will jump on the
ferry (two pounds return....) to explore Pangkor Island. Apparently there are
lovely beaches, granite boulders and lots of huge fishing
based villages.
  Next, we had to cross to the North Channel and follow the main coast to
Pulau Talang.
  A ferry and a local fishing girl in the
channel.
 We didn’t see the men
picking much out of their net.
   Along the coast,
we saw nice sandy beaches, an electric power station and a quarry. A storm
brewing.
   Bear had put
a marker randomly on the island and that’s where we
anchored – not far from the island ‘wall’. We settled
to a game of backgammon and I won easily. Huh. We played some Tri-ominoes and I kept
winning. Double huh, it’s time to settle to a history
episode or two. Better start with the Aztecs
then.............Lightning was impressive with a bit of rain and a gentle sunset.
 ALL IN ALL OFF WE GO AGAIN,
JUST A LITTLE WAY
AN EASY LITTLE JUMP IN SHALLOW
